Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The parent function here is y = log x, where 10 is the base.
The derivative of y = log x is dy/dx = (ln x) / ln 10.
The derivative of y = log (ax+b) is found in that manner, but additional steps are necessary:  differentiate the argument ax + b:
The derivative with respect to 10 of log (ax + b) is:
dy/dx = [ 1 / (ax + b) ] / [ ln 10 ] *a, where a is the derivative of (ax + b).
Alternatively, we could express the answer as
dy/dx = [ a / (ax + b) ] / [ ln 10 ] 
 
        
             
        
        
        
We know for the problem that the performer earned $120 at a performance where 8 people attend. We also know that he u<span>ses 43% of the money earned to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance, so we need to find the 43% of $120. To do that, we are going to divide 43% by 100%, and then multiply it by $120:
</span>

Now we know that the performer uses $51.6 of $120 to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance. The only thing left to find his profits is subtract $51.6 from $120:

We can conclude that the performer makes a profit of $68.4 when 8 people attend his performance.
